Japan FSA seeks tax filing exemption for trust-type stablecoins, aims for 2027 rollout

Japan’s Financial Services Agency has asked for trust-type stablecoins to be exempted from tax filing obligations from fiscal 2027. The request seeks to abolish requirements to submit beneficiary-by-beneficiary trust reports and statements that include names and income information.

Any change would require legislative approval.
